Mr. Giau praised Vietnam-Japan strategic partnership and the two countries’ legislative ties which was largely thanks to the role of the Parliamentarians Union.
Mr. Nikai said Japan wished to enhance economic cooperation with Vietnam, particularly on projects to promote agro-forestry and fishery product value chains, to build fishing ports, to upgrade irrigation, and other areas.
